Even local parks can be an issue in SA.
We did a nice
Fleurieu Peninsula day run some years ago with a
forum 4WD group, was advised lunch would be in Deep Ck Cons Pk, and it was no dogs.
Unknown to the group in general, one vehicle had a small dog in the vehicle, and it never came out, however while we had a lengthy bbq lunch, a
ranger drove through, saw the dog in the vehicle, and the owner was spoken to and fined.
They were nicely spoken to the
Ranger etc, even after they were told a fine would have to be issued, so it wasn't attitude, simply no leeway on the matter.
For what its worth, it's not so much the animal attacking anything or people in general, or that dogs can turn wild if lost in a park etc . . . more that they leave scents (urinating especially), and native animals have good noses, it spooks them.
